We have to get the relationship between metallic character and atomic radius.
Metallic character increases with increase in atomic radius and decrease with decrease of atomic radius.
If electrons from outermost shell of an element can be removed easily, that atom can be considered to have more metallic character.
With increase in atomic radius, nuclear force of attraction towards outermost shell electron decreases which facilitates the release of electron.
With decrease in atomic radius, nuclear force of attraction towards outermost shell electrons increases, so electrons are hold tightly to nucleus. Hence, removal of electron from outermost shell becomes difficult making the atom less metallic in nature.
Answer:
[Ar] 4s²
Explanation:
Ca is the symbol for Calcium. It is the 20th element and it has 20 electrons.

Answer:
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, we can consider the following chemical reaction for the oxidation of copper which only occurs at high temperatures:
In such a way, for 0.032 grams of copper, the following grams of copper (II) oxide (black product) are yielded:
Therefore, the percent yield is:
Best regards.
